What is that front station made of, if I may ask? You've got the mini intruder game I want to have

Thanks PN - they're fun to tie and fish especially the little ones. Front station is a dubbing loop with ice dub, a bit of ice hair and in the orange/peach one barred voodoo strands spun up and wrapped with barred ostrich collar and a couple hackle tips. Rear station smaller with the same dub loop, different colors and a bit of rhea fibers on the sides. The other one with pink at the rear is the same except I used barred Amherst spun in the loops in place of the synthetic voodoo. The voodoo is easier for me to work with and looks pretty good in the water. A couple pics for reference. Watching Jerry French videos tying his intruders helped me quite a bit, got a ways to go before i can get them that clean and tied that quickly, fun to practice tho and the fish seem receptive.20250319_215935.jpg20250319_220216.jpg

Thanks man, my loop game is improving but I struggle with getting things like ostrich or predator wrap lined up properly. Just gotta be more patient and work slower i guess! I found a run on the sauk this week that had me wanting something along these lines.

That's wild. Holding it like that gives the impression of a colorful lionfish.
